I’ll take ridiculous polls for 500, Alex
In what might be the silliest poll I’ve seen in years, MSNBC wants to know what you think the ‘sexiest game’ is – and Halo 3: ODST is on the list. (uh… what?) At least it’s in last place… If you need someone to blame, it was rolandk73 who noticed.(Louis Wu 16:04:08 UTC)

It’s-a me, Master Chief!
Hawty McBloggy found someone who put Mario’s head on the Master Chief’s body… then tattooed the result on his arm. Why choose between your two favorite characters? (Louis Wu 14:44:15 UTC)

Reach Info Falls
Bungie massively updated its Reach Project page last night – you’ll need to do some serious exploring. We mentioned Screenshots yesterday – but new Concept Art is up, and the Personnel section has been populated (you can read these in a more linear fashion on the front page of Bungie.net, as well). Good stuff! Thanks to CaptainTony for noticing early. If this isn’t enough info for you – swing by GameInformer’s website; they’ve put up even MORE info about Carter-259 (thanks, CaneCutter).

Around The Ring: Submissions Invite
Ok, so I’m getting an early start on the invite this time. Recording is planned for next weekend, and probably will change. I’m thinking of setting up a live stream using the new IRC and the stream I use for the Jam Nights (speaking of which I will have news about them to put the mass of questions I’ve been getting to rest). But no guarantees on that yet.
Anyhow, this show is on the Left 4 Dead 2 campaign Dark Carnival. Send in all your stories, tips, and tricks! I had some really fun times getting the gnome achievement (Half Life 2: Episode 2 flashbacks anyone?), and have many good tips to offer on your quest for the achievement.
Send them in using the usual Big Green Button, or to podtacular@gmail.com
Time is limited, so jump on it!

Kiva?
pete_the_duck was first to notice some gorgeous hi-res versions of those Reach screenshots that have been hitting the net today over at Bungie.net – filenames might provide clues to Reach’s campaign! There are currently 18 new shots in the Screenshots section – but they seem to be going up one by one, so there might be more by the time you get to them.(Louis Wu 22:38:56 UTC)
